I don't know my version or loader




Adds Hot Air Ballons to Minecraft for you to enjoy and traverse the world in! Available in all 16 colors, which work in all dimensions and can even be recolored!
Description -
Get the ingredients for a Hot Air Balloon (Mainly Iron, Leather, Wool, and String), assemble them together, and then power the balloon with a fuel source (Can be crafted with leather and coal/charcoal) to get yourself going, or, if you want to return to land, use a sand bag (Can be crafted with leather and sand) to start lowering your altitude. Left-Click with a balloon fuel source to start ascending, left-click with a sand bag to start descending, and use your forward and backward keybinds to move forward or backward while in the balloon (If you changed those keybinds, make sure to change them in the keybinds menu, since they are 'W' and 'S' by default). Balloons can be recolored and can be attacked to turn back into an item (just like boats and minecarts).
FAQ -
Q: Can you port to x version?
A: Well, being the selfish caring mod creator I am, I'm trying to port to as many version as possible. However, if you see the tags, I do indeed use Mcreator. This means that I am limited to the versions Mcreator provides. I'm trying to get as many versions as possible, but I can't get that many. I'm sorry.
Q: Can you port to Fabric?
A: I will if I will. In other words, don't expect it.
Q: Can I use this in my modpack?
A: Free advertising, so please do!
Q: Why do you have a FAQ for such a small and horrible generally simple mod?
A: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Enjoy!
